 Albrecht Durer --  Encyclopædia Britannica   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
The son of a goldsmith, Albrecht Dürer became known as the “prince of German artists.” He was the first to fuse the richness of the Italian Renaissance to the harsher northern European arts of painting, drawing, and engraving.
Such artists as Albrecht Dürer and Lucas van Leyden helped make Germany and the Low Countries a continuing center of stained glass even as its use declined in Italy.
In the north, in Germany, the painter and printmaker Albrecht Dürer was influenced by the oil painting technique developed by the medieval Flemish school and by the ideas of the Italian Renaissance, which he studied on a visit to Italy.

 Biography
Dürer was the second son of the goldsmith Albrecht Dürer the Elder, who had left Hungary to settle in Nuremberg in 1455, and of Barbara Holper, who had been born there.
The extent to which Dürer was internationally celebrated is apparent in the literary testimony of the Florentine artist Giorgio Vasari (1511-74), in whose Lives of the Most Eminent Italian Architects, Painters and Sculptors, the importance of Albrecht Dürer, the "truly great painter and creator of the most beautiful copper engravings," is repeatedly stressed.
Like most notable Italian artists, Dürer probably felt himself to be an "artist-prince," and his self-portraits seem incontestably to show a man sure of his own genius.
